My god. I've got made fun of plenty in the Game Of Thrones thread for not correctly understanding things, and rightly so, but I've stunned myself here of what a moron that I am. This connection of Don being the one who comes up with the famous Coke ad -- I didn't put that together AT ALL. I don't know, I guess I was thinking in the moment Weiner put that there as a capper because the show was in the backdrop of the advertising world, and it had a communal sort of theme with where we last see Don. but no I didn't even remotely make that connection, suggesting he thought of it. I swear to god I really must have undiagnosed ADD or something
having said that, I liked the Peggy/Stan thing a lot, that felt very natural for them. Their banter's been one of my favorite things of the last few seasons, and as I've said before Stan was probably my favorite minor character.
and man I wonder how much that one last shot of Pete and Trudy added to the budget. I kinda figured there might've been at least a little bit more to it, bothering to get the plane there and all.
